  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

    Buffalo Trace Antique Collection

    i have been retailing booze in KY for fifteen years, and i haven't laid eyes firsthand on eagle 17 or william larue in about four years. my theory is, they are trying (struggling) to keep eagle and w.l. weller regular production on the shelves, and have to keep a fine line between antique...

    Dr. Grabow Pipes?

    very nice, dig it. sanitization is up to you, but it looks well cleaned at first blush. soak a cleaner in alcohol, leave it in for a few hours, then run a couple fresh ones through, see how they come out.
